Finally got the car registered today, ordering up vanity plates in a bit. Decided to fix a few things visually that were bugging me. In the previous pics you can see the vents on both sides of the car were painted silver. I brought them back to black:

Also decided to night shade the side markers (i hate the fact that fbodys even have them.

Next project is going to be pulling the Trans Am decals and painting those gloss black as well, who ever had done them doesnt look like they did them well or there just worn over time?

irockidz28 04-26-2011 12:34 AM

941LE 04-26-2011 12:34 AM

i know people lol. I went to inferno auto in woonsocket. Did a great job. TA is gonna get tinted there.

midnight 04-26-2011 12:41 AM

hook me up with your guy!

how long was the turn around? ill def check out inferno

941LE 04-26-2011 12:45 AM

dropped it off before work and then picked it up after work. Theres a lot of shops around where you can get a sticker with tint. They guy that goes around inspecting the shops that do the inspections doesn't work on weekends remember that lol.

midnight 04-26-2011 03:02 AM

finding a shop open on the weekend is a bitch

941LE 04-26-2011 03:07 AM

not around here. a lot of guys are open on saturdays. Delivering to the shops do have their advantages

i havnt even gotten to see them in person yet! i stole that pic from Tyler...were meeting up monday so i can get em...ive been spending alot of time researching and honestly i think its gonna end up with some 295 NT05s on the rear. Lost traction twice now at the TOP of second gear. Sure thats due in part to the slightly beat down 245s that are on it

MTBSully 04-26-2011 07:14 PM

those z06 wheels 18" all around? Let me know if you want to sell them.

MTBSully 04-26-2011 07:14 PM

wow that actually looks really clean i didn't think it was going to come out that nice to be perfectly honest. nice work!

midnight 05-01-2011 05:43 AM

oh its no where near as clean as id like it to be. but thanks lol .gonna get the car all washed tomorrow and see if like it...if not im gonna try buffing it...if that doesnt fix it its coming off and im buying a used one to throw back on while i sand it back down and prep it properly

ILuvPizzaTimes10 05-01-2011 01:57 PM

i like the idea. maybe ALOT darker with the night shade. or even use a gloss black Paint. so wen it lights up all you see is the Trans Am.
